Samantha Taylor - Internship 2020 Recap

Every year The Land Group has an internship program to find qualified candidates in the Landscape Architecture and Civil Engineering fields that would like to work alongside or employees for the summer. It is a great opportunity for us to meet and engage with the future architects and engineers, while giving them a peek into the industry.

Even though this year’s program ended up looking a little different, we were still able to continue with our civil engineering program in the fall. Luckily for us, Samantha Taylor was up for the challenge of going to school and interning for us at the same time. Not only did she excel at school, but she also worked side-by-side with our engineers and produced a top-notch research project – an impressive accomplishment all around!

Her research project, The Stormwater Management Technology Manual, provides a variety of sustainable and innovative stormwater treatment technologies and information for the protection of our water and ecosystems.

“This experience took ideas from a textbook and brought them to life. It wasn’t until I started interning that I felt like I actually got a feel for the civil engineering field and all the vast opportunities and disciplines it overarches. Working with a group of people that you trust and can rely on is so important to feeling confident and working fluently and cohesively.” – Samantha Taylor | Civil Engineering Intern

Congratulations Sam on such a successful semester! We are excited to see where your future takes you!
